Fernando Báez Sosa (18) could not defend himself. He had already fallen to the floor, the product of a trumpet in the face, when the rugbiers attacked him mercilessly. Pineapples. Kicks In the head, in the abdomen. All this combo of violence resulted in internal hemorrhages and "neurogenic shock", that is, damage to the nervous system due to the blows in the skull that was fatal.
Clarín agreed to the autopsy report, carried out on January 18 by a doctor of the Scientific Police, the same day of the murder, whose details are shocking. However, for the coroner Mariano Narciso Castex, "he is poor, routine and fails to deepen the cause of death ."
The document, which was delivered on January 22 to the prosecutor Verónica Zamboni (decentralized UFI No. 6 of Vila Gesell), indicates that Fernando died " traumatic due to traumatic cardiac arrest due to neurogenic shock caused by multiple head injuries generated intraparenchymal massive intracranial hemorrhage without bone fracture . "
"The deaths are natural or violent. Within the violent there are three varieties: homicidal, suicidal or accidental. A traumatic death is a violent death. Although it seems obvious, the doctor has to certify all this, and in this terrible case of Villa Gesell is clear that it was a traumatic death, not natural, "criminalist Raúl Torre explained to this newspaper.

He also specified that "the trauma of the skull, inside the brain, in the meninges, caused a number of hemorrhages that resulted in an affectation that made life incompatible."
The cold words in the report realize that Fernando received a brutal beating . Intraparenchymal hemorrhage is the first cause of cerebral hemorrhages. While bone fractures are not reported, the attack was directed primarily at the head and abdomen.
" Multiple scoriations and ecchymoses in the maxillary region and lateral neck side were also observed , among which two footwear footprints are distinguished , whose results are expected for the next few hours.

Ecchymosis implies a vital injury , that is, it cannot be post mortem. Báez Sosa suffered them while still alive on Avenue 3 and Paseo 102. Then he became unconscious, they performed CPR maneuvers outside the Le Brique bowling alley and at 6 am on January 18 they decreed his death in Villa Gesell hospital.
"He presents closed trauma of the abdomen with hepatic laceration and bruises in the large intestine due to multiple closed trauma. In addition, he presents left hemothorax with infiltrate in both lung parenchyma, " the report adds.

What does closed trauma mean? That it is internal, that it is not bleeding outside, such as liver lesions.
The hemothorax, meanwhile, is the presence of blood in the pleural cavity, between the chest wall and the lung. Usually this occurs due to trauma. In this regard, it was visualized that the two lungs were "with abundant blood infiltrate ."
The official cause of death was a " traumatic cardiac arrest ", while the mechanism of death was a " neurogenic shock from severe head trauma ."

In the traumatologic examination, on the other hand, seven injuries were registered, the last one of them originated in the resuscitation maneuvers:
1-Slag blunt in lower jaw ascending right branch of about 7 centimeters.
2-Chymos ecchymosis.
3-Ecchymosis compatible with imprint of shoe sole in lower left maxillary region.
4-Ecchymosis on the left anterolateral side of the neck compatible with the imprint of the sole of shoes.
5-Ecchymosis in the left supraclavicular region.

6-Equimotic lesion in the right parasternal, subclavicular region.
7-Brands compatible with the use of cardio-defibrillator in the chest.
Castex told Clarín that the autopsy omits key expertise that "was not done" and regretted that the protocol imposed by the late Osvaldo Raffo was not followed. "First, what is done with a traumatized person who is beaten is to verify the marks on the clothes. Second, once the clothes are removed, the body is examined, without washing, to match the marks of the blows," he said.
He also said that the body "then x-rays from end to end to check for radiological bone lesions."

"The report indicates that the brainstem was severely injured and that the death is due to neurogenic shock. Did you check it well with x-rays or only with the eye inspection ?" If it is neurogenic, death is instantaneous, "said Castex.
The coroner said that the injuries imply that "the kicks in the neck turned the victim's head violently " and warned that "the injuries to the face need to be thoroughly studied." "This speaks of a brutal cruelty , they have destroyed his head," he completed.
The witnesses of the crime agreed that Baez Sosa fell to the floor and then began to kick him in the head and body.
In the case, ten rugby players are arrested: Máximo Thomsen (20), Ciro Pertossi (19), Luciano Pertossi (18), Ayrton Viollaz (20), Matías Benicelli (20), Blas Cinalli (18), Juan Pedro Guarino (19) , Enzo Comelli (19), Lucas Pertossi (20) and Alejo Milanesi (20).
For the prosecutor, the first two were co-authors of the homicide and the remaining eight, necessary participants. Milanesi was the only one in the group who was not identified on the four reconnaissance wheels.
To defend the victim's parents, in charge of Fernando Burlando's study, we must add the aggravating fact that they killed "for pleasure" , since at least one of them filmed the previous sequence and the defendants harangued with hit and kill to young man.
The qualification is " homicide aggravated by the premeditated contest of two or more persons ", for which they could receive a penalty of life imprisonment. A key day is expected this Monday, as Zamboni will define the procedural situation of the accused before the guarantee judge David Mancinelli.
